A source told The Sun she is citing his ‘unreasonable behaviour’ which allegedly includes his ‘jealousy’.

They said: ‘Cheryl is divorcing JB on the grounds of his unreasonable behaviour. She has had enough of his jealousy. He didn’t like it when she had to spend time with other men and even became jealous when she was hanging out with her dogs.’

However, it’s since been reported the split has been amicable and the pair plan to stay friends.

The source also claimed that Cheryl is after a quick divorce, but as no pre-nup was put in place it could take some time.

‘Cheryl seems to want this over and done with as quickly as possible but it could be held up if she does have any talks with JB over a financial settlement.’

The pair have been married for 18 months although recently rumours of a split have surfaced as the couple have been seen less and less together with Jean-Bernard allegedly spending Christmas away from his wife. It was also alleged that the language barrier between the pair was causing problems.

Their last outing together was Ant and Dec’s joint birthday in October. The pair married back in 2014 after having dated for just three months.
